Empty Muni bus rams into light pole, fire hydrant (updates)

Update (11:39 a.m.): The Examiner now reports that the incident is being chalked up to “employee errors.”

Update (10:51 a.m.): According to the SF Examiner, the bus was completely unattended (no driver). MTA is still looking into how this happened.

Original post: Muni rider Paul alerts us to an unfortunate incident that happened at O’Farrell and Van Ness this morning. @ActionNewsSF says no passengers were on board. The marquee looks to read as much. We’ll do our best to find out what happened, and the condition of the driver.
